Blog Overview

I started blogging again in July 2023 after some shifting of my job responsibilities, and my children growing up which gave me a lot more discretionary time. I do this for me, but I hope some others find my posts interesting or useful in some way.

So You Want to be a YouTube Influencer, Vlogger, or Blogger

We all watch YouTube Videos, and at some point we all say "I Could Do That"! Well, you might be able to do that, but it takes a lot of work. Are you cute? Are you interesting? Are you witty, or funny, or charming? If not, my friend, it is going to be a tough run at this. Consider keeping your day job and don't get your hopes up too high!

Here is a newer channel that I ran across. From what I can tell, he started his channel about 4 months ago, and now has 95 subscribers and 20 videos. I imagine that the first subscribers were his friend, which is a great start. I don't know anything about this person, but it will be interesting to see how this channel does as he competes the full-time folks in a competitive space.

I keep toying with the idea of doing exactly what The Random Plant is doing, but I keep reminding myself that I don't want to put anywhere near the work required to so this, and I am just not that interesting, and I don't want to try to work to be any more interesting, or cute, or witty, or charming, than I already am - which is a pretty boring person who is very thankful that my wife seems to really love me. Happy Gardening
